Registrars - Skills Demonstration and Assessment Weekend
|
|
We've sent out invitations to everyone who we think is eligible to attend this event. You'll have received an invitation via "RSVPfy". It may have gone into your spam folder, so please check there.
|
|
There are at least 64 who could attend this optional event, but only 48 places. We will have to prioritise based on training needs so we cannot guarantee you'll be able to attend this year. Early registration from everyone would help us complete the prioritisation process and let you know if you have secured a place or not.

Office staff changes - a new Information System Support person!
|
|
|
|
I'm pleased to inform you all that we have a new member of staff, taking over the information systems support role. His name is Finlay Calder, and he has a wide range of skills that he's already putting into practice. It will take him a while to get to understand how things work, so please give him a few days before asking the difficult questions! I've asked him to introduce himself:
|
|
|
|
|
My name is Finlay. I am passionate about technology, including data analytics, and look forward to putting my knowledge to work for the College's benefit. I have spent the last four years studying in Wellington at Victoria University. While studying, I tutored in IT and worked part-time with my IT skills. I am excited to begin my career and can't wait to see what the future holds. I love watching sport and listening to music while I'm not at work. If you ever have any IT related issue feel free to send me an email (finlay@rnzcuc.org.nz).
